Because I got arrested a couple of times.
And I want to tell you how some cool white people started changing my life.
Started pouring into my life.
Before that, I thought like Black Lives Matter thinks.
I think like a lot of leftists think.
A lot of white leftists, a lot of black leftists.
Racism all around.
It's all around the place.
It's everywhere.
That was what I believed.
My parents didn't teach me that.
I don't even know where I got that from.
I guess just hanging around with the kids on the street.
But that's what I believed.
Albeit, I got to see white people, if you will, every Saturday at church that were cool.
But I always felt, ah, you know, I always found perceived racism.
There was something about them.
I knew if we weren't in church, they were going to be racist.
All that stuff.
I got into some trouble with the law.
And I can remember, after getting out of jail and being released on probation, I was sent to a church.
A church that I attend today, by the way.
And there was a white man there that prayed for me, shook my hand, told me that he loved me, hugged me, and I broke.
Because although I love my dad, and he was a rock, because at least he was there in the morning when I awoke, and he was there in the evening when I returned.
I never had to worry about that, even though he wasn't always the nicest guy.
I never had to worry about that.
I had stability.
But I never heard the words, I love you, until a white man told me.
And then I was in some baby mama drama.
I had a...
Child out of wet life.
My daughter, Taylor.
I love her dearly.
But I got into some drama.
I went through a custody battle for my daughter.
On and off for seven years.
And I want to tell you that it was a white pastor, the church that I attend today, the senior pastor, that called me on occasion.
He's so humble he won't even remember.
That called me on occasion just to see how I was doing.
There was a white attorney that fought for me in the courts.
Because I wanted to be a dad.
And I was a Democrat, liberal, thinking that, hey, Democrats were for us, big government was good, and then I got to get into the court system, both as a criminal and as a father, and I realized just how much government didn't care for me.
This systemic racism by whites, I gotta tell you, when I went to the child support office and when I fought for custody, the people that treated me the worst were the black women there.
That treated me like I was dirt.
That treated me like I was scum.
And then I would go back and talk to my white attorney that would fight for me.
I want to tell you about a spiritual mentor that I had.
Brad Bright, son of Bill Bright, founder of Campus Crusade for Christ.
That met me and took me under his wings and mentored me spiritually.
I want to tell you about my...
Buddy Mark Mucha, who took me in when I had no place to go.
I want to tell you about my buddy Danny Koswick, that took me in when I had no place to go.
I want to tell you about my friends on the radio, my colleagues, the American adversaries, Christopher Hart, Nostra Dennis, Larry Adams.
When I wanted to come into radio that opened up their arms and brought me in, I get offended with the idea.
That there's systemic racism.
And black people, black Christians, you should be ashamed of yourselves.
You should be ashamed of yourselves.
How dare you allow God's church to be co-opted by radical communists?
How dare you?
How dare you?
We'll get into that.
I want to thank Gilda, who took me in her arms.
I want to thank...
Grandma and Grandpa Perez, they happen to be Puerto Rican, who watched over me.
I want to thank my buddy Mark Ortiz in California.
All these people that the left would call racists.
Leftists are liars.
Christians, we are in a fight, conservatives.
We are in a fight.
This election cycle is civilization versus chaos.
I think Victor Davis Hanson framed that perfectly a couple of nights ago or a few nights ago on Fox News.
And black Christians, I want to tell you, I want to tell you there is no affirmative action plan in heaven.
No affirmative action plan in heaven.
Your skin color, The fact that you believe that you're a victim instead of a victor in Christ is not going to earn you any cool points in heaven.
And the fact that the black Christian church is out protesting and mimicking and repeating the mantra of Black Lives Matter that wants to deconstruct the traditional family.
It's a shame.

Trending now on the Larry Alder Show.
I'm talking with Kate Anderson, Senior Counsel with Alliance Defending Freedom.
Kate Anderson, this could have been a pretty easy fix.
If Congress had wanted to expand the definition of sex to include sexual orientation, they could have done that.
Yes, and actually this issue was before Congress on numerous occasions, and Congress has not added the concepts of sexual orientation or gender identity to this federal employment law.
So Justice Alito, when he was writing his dissenting opinion in this case, He said that the court was legislating from the bench by making a change that Congress had declined to make, and there's definitely some truth in that.
I know that the ADF has been involved in representing female athletes who have been challenged by transgender male athletes.
How does this decision affect all of that?
The case you're talking about in Connecticut, we represent a couple of girls who...
In that state, there are two male athletes who identify as female who have taken 15 state track and field championship records over the last three years and all of the opportunities that come with those.
So there's definitely an issue before the courts on women's sports and the fairness for women to be able to compete and to be able to enjoy the equal opportunities and particularly the scholarship opportunities that come from that.
So this decision did not reach that, and the majority opinion actually said it doesn't reach women's athletics.
But we have every expectation that activists will try to use the logic to move it into that context, and we will be there to try to protect women's equal opportunities.

Trending now on America First with Sebastian Berger.
The taking down of statues that have been there in some cases for more than a century.
What is Dave Brat's analysis about what that's really about?
The Marxists are alive and well.
And so we thought it was done with the Soviet Union, but we didn't finish the job.
And now the Cultural Revolution of Mao is finding its way here.
Chinese separated the people from their families, from their religion, from their tradition, from their culture.
You have underground churches.
They're happy with the messaging that's going here.
So what at first started as a certain type of message, now the Marxists are full control.
And what do they want to do?
And they've made it very clear in the last few days it's come around all full circle.
They want to separate us from our history.
They want to separate us from our religion.
And in the last day, now, one of the leaders of one of the radical movements is saying, let's go after the churches and the statues of Christ.
Wow.
Ciao.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I gotta tell you, it is so cool to hear that recording.
It is unbelievable.
Thank you, Dennis Prager.
Again, this is Carl Jackson sitting in for Dennis Prager, the wisest.
Conservative on radio, in my opinion.
And before I went to the break, I was introducing myself and telling you my story and the fact that I reject this nonsense of systemic racism and institutional racism.
Was America a place at one point in time where blacks had to battle that?
Yes.
But by and large, we have dealt with that.
And right now, we spit on the face of those that came before us.
And it is absolutely sad at what we're doing and what we're watching.
By the way, the number to call into the program is 1-8-Prager-776.
Again, that number, 1-8-Prager-776.
And guys, again, I watch it all the time myself.
I cannot recommend PragerU enough.
Make sure you subscribe and donate because we know what the left is doing to try to destroy Dennis Prager's voice.

He puts up a column every Tuesday.
You can usually find it on his website and TownHall.com.
Make sure you check it out because he writes good stuff, potent stuff, important stuff every single week.
So like I said, I am a Christian conservative American that happens.
And I reject the notion that there's systemic racism.
I reject black Christians that will sit there and march and protest.
With Black Lives Matter.
Black Lives Matter, who are funded by left-wing radicals all across the globe.
Black Lives Matter that wants to deconstruct God's family.
The traditional family.
Black Lives Matter that promotes LGBTQ propaganda, if you will.
And yet...
Black Christians buy into this madness every election cycle, hook, line, and sinker.
It is absolutely crazy to me.
This idea that there's systemic racism that exists within policing.
Let me tell you something.
You know who's impacted most?
This dumb idea.
Cops should be defunded.
You know who's going to be hurt the most, and black people, let's be honest, we know it.
We know it.
It's going to be our communities.
Stop lying.
You know just as well as I do that when you were growing up in the hood, you were less scared of the cop than you were that drug dealer down the street.
Stop lying.
Stop buying into this democratic narrative every election cycle.
You can look at George Floyd and Derek Chauvin, which I'll talk about later in the program.
I'm probably going to offend some people with that one.
I'll talk about Rayshard Brooks and Officer Garrett Roth, because Officer Garrett Roth should be free today, right now.
So we'll talk about that later as well.
But nine unarmed...
In 2019, according to Heather McDonald, the City Journal, Manhattan Institute, nine unarmed black men...
Shot and killed in 2019. 19 unarmed white men shot and killed.
172 whites altogether shot by police.
Shot and killed by police in 2019. 88 blacks, if I get those numbers correctly, shot and killed by police.
But 9 unarmed.
And 9 unarmed does not mean dangerous.
This idea that systemic racism exists in policing?
Not today.
Not today.
I was alive and I was around in L.A., living in L.A. during the Los Angeles riots.
It is not the same police force.
You see so many races and ethnicities represented in police forces across the country today.
Right here in Orlando, Florida.
Where we had a black sheriff.
Now we have a Puerto Rican sheriff, right?
I mean, it's amazing.
But police are systemically racist.
Now, I'm not naive.
There are situational issues where you will experience racism.
There's no doubt about it.
But America isn't a racist country.
If you walk by a person that's racist, a white person that's racist, you'll walk by the next 99 that are not.
When black people say, I heard Jesse Jackson when I was growing up say, black people couldn't be racist because we don't have the power.
That's a doggone lie too.
I'm telling you, I was in the court system.
There's so many black faces in there, it's unreal.
The court system in the United States of America is overwhelmingly run by Democratic progressives.
By the way, I do have helpers in the studio and I gotta give thanks to my team.
I got Nostradenis behind the glass.
Thank you for being here, Nostradenis.
You want to say hello to the people?
And then I got Mr. Matos that is sitting in studio with me, helping me with research.
And I want to thank those that typically sit in with me, Aubrey Kahn, and then Mickey Alvarez.
So we try to keep the sellouts real diverse here at the Carl Jackson Show.
So I always try to keep a Latino in and a white person in.
You know, we just want sellouts of every single race.
So we just try to be consistent here.
You want to make sure that you stay tuned at the bottom of the hour, too, because what I'm going to go through are six reasons that black Christians should leave the Democrat Party, and I'm going to come at it from a biblical perspective, because I'm so sick and tired of the church or Jewish synagogues, any religious folk, I'm tired of you disappearing.
The reason why we see chaos in the streets is because we weren't doing our job in the church buildings.
And I didn't think I intended to come here to preach today.
I wanted to talk politics.
But I'm going to have to preach a little bit because the church is absent.
And that's why we're seeing what we're seeing in the streets.
When black Christians believe that they have the same values as a radical extremist left-wing group, there's a problem, Christian church.
There's a problem.
